Add an edit grace period for newly created games

So I just created a game and realized I misspelled a word (in case you're curious I misspelled Wookiee - I know, I know, you should always spell it like cookiee) only after I hit the submit button. Since there seems to be a 3 - 5 day delay on games going live, is there any way we could add an edit function?

I realize that once we hit submit, they are put into the queue, but perhaps there could be a function of the edit button that allows editing up to a point? For instance games 1-1000 cannot be edited as they will be (or soon will be) for immediate play. Games 1001-(infinity) could be edited as there would still be a long enough window. Or even a 1 hour frame for you to realize your mistake would work. That way spelling mistakes can be rectified or if you decide that your idea of Batman and the Nyan Cat saying "Wonder Twin Powers Active!" is lame and overplayed, you can change it something more awesome.

But mostly because I really want to change Wookie to the rightful Wookiee.

/cry I just wan't 2 edit my misstakes! Is that sew rong?

If I blame the Texas Martini, does that make the mistake more acceptable? Or the fact I was covered in bat poo at the time and obviously distracted by the lack of Alfred's skills at keeping the bat cave sanitary? Don't ask. (Okay, I'll tell you - went on a bat watching cruise tonight... it went under the bats. Seriously, someone needs to spray some Febreeze up in that bridge - 1.5 million bats smell! Ewww to getting pooed on and yay five years good luck.) Anyway.

I just don't want to anger the Wookiees. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee.

I like this idea for totally selfish reasons. I had one recently I created and JUST as I hit the button to submit it, I saw a typo. Tried stopping the browser, but it was too late. Revenge of the Sith style "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

But sometimes the typos lead to much funnier games!

That's right. Like "I hit my funny bond": http://drawception.com/viewgame/ff1RQZBfPK/i-hit-my-funny-bond/
